The Acoustic Energy AE509 floorstanding speaker delivers precise sound reproduction with advanced driver technology. Its innovative carbon fibre components ensure a natural and lightning-fast audio experience.
The AE509 employs a proprietary Mid Tweeter Mid/bass (MTM) driver layout, enhancing phase coherence and transient response. The use of lightweight carbon fibre for both the tweeter and mid/bass drivers significantly reduces inertia, allowing for improved transient response and clarity. The 25mm carbon fibre dome tweeter, paired with a cast aluminium waveguide, ensures accurate high-frequency dispersion while minimizing resonance and distortion. Additionally, the 125mm mid/bass drivers feature oversized 35mm voice coils that optimize thermal management and motor force factor, resulting in dynamic bass performance. The speaker's cabinet utilizes Resonance Suppression Composite (RSC) technology to dampen cabinet vibrations, preserving sonic fidelity and enhancing spatial imaging.
Key Features
-
Carbon Fibre Drivers: Lighter and better damped than traditional materials, carbon fibre ensures a faster and more neutral sound.
-
Cast Aluminium Waveguide: Provides optimal dispersion while reducing unwanted vibration to maintain clarity in high frequencies.
-
Optimized Driver Design: 125mm mid/bass drivers with oversized voice coils minimize thermal compression for a highly dynamic bass response.
-
MTM Configuration: This layout delivers improved time alignment and phase relationships, resulting in a coherent soundstage.
-
High-Performance Crossover: Incorporates polypropylene film capacitors and air core inductors for precise signal management across frequencies.
-
RSC Cabinet Construction: Constrained layer composite materials reduce cabinet coloration, enhancing overall sound accuracy.
